Claude's Comprehensive User Guide

Most people use Claude as an upgraded version of a search engine. Ask a question, answer a question, and then say, "That's about it.">"".

① Memory(Memory)

Go toSettings → Capabilities → Memory and take a lookClaudeRemembered something. It has enabled cross-session memory for all users, extracting information from your past conversations and carrying it over to the next. However, what it remembers isn't necessarily accurate; if the background information is outdated, it will continue to understand you with incorrect premises. Go in and take a look, delete the inaccurate information, and add what it should know. Do this once, and every subsequent conversation will benefit from it.

② Model Selection

Then figure out the model selection and calculate yourToken account. For everyday tasks, Sonnet 4.6 is a no-brainer – fast, smart, and affordable. Only switch to Opus 4.6 for extremely complex, in-depth analysis. Don't immediately use Opus 4.6 as scratch paper; use it for 90% of the scenarios. `Sonnet` is enough; don't start with `Opus` and then complain about how quickly your quota is being used up.

Content Creation

  With Research ModeThe effect is better. Don't immediately ask it to write an article about XX; you'll only get low-quality content.

  Many people have found that Projects andSkills After using it for a long time, Claude Getting stupider. This is because you've piled up too many conflicting instructions, causing it to become "rule poisoned". Top players have Claude perform a "regular detox" on himself every week. Remember, in this meta-skill set, less is more. There's another feature many people haven't discovered called Artifacts. Claude not only allows you to write text, but also generates web pages, interactive charts, and SVG graphics that can be previewed in real time directly on the right side of the dialogue. After writing a data analysis article, simply let it generate a corresponding data visualization; a screenshot is all you need to use it. The current barrier to entry has shifted from whether one can write code to whether one can formulate requirements. Linking these functions together, a complete workflow looks like this: Use Research Mode to organize materials, write the first draft in Projects, and then use Skill. This tool generates multi-platform distribution versions with a single click. Use it to generate images if needed. This isn't a fragmented tool; it's a streamlined, functional pipeline.

  

  Rapid Information Analysis and Decision Making

  The problem you face every day is not a lack of information, but that valuable information is drowned out by noise and you don't have time to read it all.

  Processing a large number of repetitive tasks

  Your time is being eaten up by repetitive tasks.

  Your time is being eaten up by repetitive tasks.

  Weekly reports, daily information processing, and format conversions—these tasks aren't difficult, but they can take up several of your most alert hours of the day. What you need isn't "do it faster," but rather to make these tasks unnecessary for your constant presence.

  What you need isCowork + Timed tasks. Download the desktop version, Claude, and open Cowork. It doesn't offer suggestions in a dialog box; it directly takes over your local folders, reading, modifying, and performing operations. There's only one prerequisite: you must clearly explain the standard operating procedures in plain language. If you clearly define these four things—what the input is, what steps are involved, what the output format is, and where it is stored—then Claude can run. If you don't know how to describe the task, here's a simple method: Add "Start by using AskUserQuestion" to the prompt. Claude will then ask you a series of structured questions and generate options for you. You just need to select the options; you don't need to organize your thoughts from scratch. Please note: The `Cowork` folder has actual read and write permissions. It is recommended to create a separate working folder for it, and not point to the entire `Documents` folder or the desktop. During the first use, supervise the entire process and only start the scheduled task after confirming everything is correct.

  

  Scheduled TaskThis task can be further automated.Scheduled TaskThis task can be further automated. Once set up, every Monday morning at 7 AM, Claude will automatically run, organize, and save. When you wake up and turn on your computer, your files will already be there. What used to be a two-hour routine can now be completed even when you're not present.

  Monetization or Development

  Most companies are already paying for AI tools, but the problem isn't the tools themselves, but how they're used.AI The truly valuable skill isn't knowing how to use Claude, but rather understanding a company's workflow. It's about identifying where the input is, where the processing is, and where repetitive, low-value actions are occurring, and then reconnecting these steps using Claude. This doesn't rely on technical background, but rather on an understanding of the business structure. Claude Code represents another direction. It runs in the terminal and is installed using native commands:

  macOS / Linux / WSL:curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash

  Windows PowerShell："Full-time AI Programmer team". Create a folder named `.claude` in the project and configure `CLAUDE.md`. When you open `PR`, it will automatically dispatch an `Agent`. The team helps you find bugs, perform tests, migrate code, and even directly click on elements to modify the front end. Even if you're not a programmer, the barrier to entry for zero-code automation has dropped to rock bottom. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) need customized internal tools, such as data dashboards, customer management interfaces, and process automation. However, they cannot afford full-time developers or project fees exceeding ten thousand yuan. But they are willing to pay $1,500 to $3,000 to someone who can deliver a basic, usable tool using Claude Code within a week. Don't stay at the stage of "I know I can do this." If you've developed a mature usage method for Claude in a specific vertical industry, you can package it into a standardized service, not just for your own use, but to replicate it for others or companies in the same industry. Develop once, monetize multiple times.

  Choose something you can try tonight

  The feature itself isn't valuable; its value only lies in the moment you integrate it into your workflow.

  Get started tonight: If you're a self-media creator: Create a new Project and upload your three representative works. If you're doing research: dump a report you've been meaning to read on Research Mode. If you're a working professional: describe a task you repeat every week and let Cowork run it for you. If you want to make money: Find a local business you know and think about which of their processes is the least efficient.

Tomorrow you will find: Claude Finally no longer"That's it".
